"My Supreme Court nominee" Takes a Cue from "Lost"
So today's email, subject line "My Supreme Court nominee," from President Obama may not have been as playful and comprehensive as "Lost" in 8:15, but the multimedia ,e-nnouncement, with eight bonus Organizing videos plus links to Facebook, Twitter and Digg, is all about bringing new people up to speed -- and into the Organizing for America fold. Even if you missed the first season and its exciting cliffhanger November 4.
Documentary Investors Wanted: Citizen Journalists, Activists and Social Change
Fresh off an Obama Organizing Fellowship in the swing state of Missouri, I am (working...quickly! :-) ) to raise funds to produce a documentary film -- FROM DENVER TO NOVEMBER -- about the netroots, its impact on Presidential politics and the potential for a brand new model of social change under an Obama administration.
Evidence -- plus my own intuition / experience -- suggest an Obama administration can deliver a new model of social change: a parallel path coordinating top-down governmental change with unprecedented community action, efficiently enabled by web technology, social media, and where both citizen activists and citizen journalists play vital roles.
